“What a fantastic sight!” The decision to start Erik ten Hag against Galatasaray was well received by Manchester United fans.

Man United head coach Erik ten Hag has announced his starting XI to face Galatasaray in tonight’s UEFA Champions League matchup.

Manchester United will host Galatasaray in a UEFA Champions League group stage match this evening, and Erik ten Hag has announced his starting lineup.

After losing 1-0 to Crystal Palace on Saturday, United will be trying to get back on track against a Turkish team they haven’t played in almost a decade. The lone goal scored by Joachim Andersen doomed the Reds to their fifth loss after nine games this season.

This means that tonight, as they seek their first European win of the season, Ten Hag will be expecting a response from his players. Despite his team’s recent loss to Palace three days ago, the Dutchman has opted to make only one alteration to his lineup.

Facundo Pellistri has been replaced by Hannibal Mejbri after he temporarily left the team. Bruno Fernandes appears to be a starting option on the right wing.

Also included on the bench are players like Christian Eriksen, Alejandro Garnacho, and Antony, who all resumed training over the weekend. Sergio Reguilon and Kobbie Mainoo, among others, are still unavailable for use.

Ten Hag will be hopeful that his decision to make one change to the squad that was defeated at the weekend pays off with an improved performance and a positive outcome. Within minutes of the team announcement, United’s fanbase has been buzzing about the decision to put Hannibal in the starting lineup.
